The fatality in the road accident in Benjamin: Rabbi Aharon Ankri from Ofra
Tragedy: It has been permitted for publication that the person killed in the car accident this afternoon (Wednesday) near the Ma'ale Levona junction is Rabbi Aharon Ankeri from the settlement of Eli.
In the settlement's announcement, it was stated: "With deep sorrow, we announce in shock that in the traffic accident today at the Ma'ale Levona junction – Rabbi Aharon Ankri, of blessed memory, a resident of the Neve Sha'anan neighborhood and the rabbi of the Nof Harim neighborhood, was killed." (His son-in-law of Rabbi Yoram Eliyahu from the Meir Institute), we share in the great sorrow of his wife Michal and their nine children, and in the sorrow of his brother Elazar Ankari."
From Moriyah Street in the Nof HaHarim neighborhood, where Rabbi Aharon Ankri served as a rabbi, three IDF soldiers fell in the current war. Shilo Rauchberger, may his memory be a blessing, Roi Beit Yaakov, may his memory be a blessing, and Ivri Dikstein, may his memory be a blessing, about two weeks ago.
Tragedy follows tragedy.
Michal, the wife of Rabbi Aharon Ankri, is the sister of Yedidya Eliyahu, of blessed memory, who fell in the fighting in Gaza.
From the Forum of Valor, it was reported: "This evening we received the heartbreaking news of the tragic passing of Forum of Valor member – Rabbi Aharon Ankeri, may his memory be a blessing, who was killed today in a serious car accident near the settlement of Eli in Benjamin."
"The families of the Forum of Valor share in the profound sorrow of the forum members – Rabbi Yoram and Rebbetzin Ziva Eliahu and all their family members, and the heavy sorrow of the widow Michal Ankari – the family of Yedidya Eliahu, may his memory be a blessing, who fell in the fighting in Gaza."
Rabbi Aharon, of blessed memory, was a partner in the forum's activities from the day of its establishment, was very active, and greatly assisted the Valor Forum. May his soul be bound in the bond of life – and may the Lord wipe away tears from all faces.
